HARVEY DAVISSON LOSES A $500 VICTORY BOND.
.Harvey Davisson had the misfortune to lose or have stolen a SSOO Vicotry Liberty bond Wednesday. He had just paid for it a few days before and drawn it from Hie bank. Tuesday h e put it in his pocket, intending to apply it a debt. He carried it around in his inside coat pocket all day Tuesday and remembers to have seen it Wednesday morning when he put bn his coat. He had placed it te a day book end one end of the bond extended outside the book and he remembers pushing the bond back an the book when he put on his coat. When he went down town he took off his coat and laid it in his automobile which was parked in front of his office next to the Trust & Savings bank. Later he took a drive |o his farm in Hanging Grove township and did not discover his loss until the noon hour after his return. He fears that someone standing near the car noticed the bond protruding. from the day book in his pocket and abstracted it, in which event its recovery is doubtful, as it was an unregistered bond. Mr. Davisson is advertising his loss elsewhere and will pay a liberal reward for its return. He has re- ■ ported the loss to the government and it is possible that some day it may be recovered, if stolen. The number of the bond is F 648250.
